Birthday

I can hardly believe my beautiful baby daughter has grown into a young woman of 12 years. Truly, where has all the time gone?

When I was a kid, I used to roll my eyes when my parents and grandparents talked about the passing time. For me, I couldn't grow up fast enough, but they always urged me to appreciate my youth. Now my daughter is 12 years old, and I'm beginning to get a sense of their perspective. It would seem time really does accelerate the older I get. But for now, we simply give thanks for 12 wonderful years since our daughter arrived in our lives.
